And so it begins… Antioch violent crime starts. We had a nice streak going of no one being killed.

What was she doing with two very expensive cars in her garage? A Dodge Viper costs more than the house. I hope county housing takes a very good look at this house.

How did you conclude that the garage consists of 2 very expensive cars? The article never mentions about any of it.

@Victor… Julio is correct, there was an expensive vehicle in the garage which was not in the press release. It was the wifes late husbands car.
